How Linux differ from other operating systems?

Linux is more like a language in which you structure sentences to assemble small functions to accomplish a task whereas a Windows environment accomplishes tasks by running independent programs ("executables") which may not communicate with each other except through stored data............................................................................................................................................................................Linux is the best-known and most-used open source operating system. There are different 'distributions' of Linux each comes with a set of programs, tools, and services that are typically bundled together with the Linux kernel to provide all of the necessary components of a fully functional operating system. Very similar to Windows OS.But Linux also is different from Windows in many important ways. First, and perhaps most importantly, Linux is open source software. The code used to create Linux is free and available to the public to view, edit, and-for users with the appropriate skills-to contribute to.Linux is also different in that, although the core pieces of the Linux operating system are generally common, the many distributions of Linux include different software options. This means that Linux is incredibly customizable, because not just applications, such as word processors and Web Browsers, can be swapped around.
